World Cup 2018: England 1966/1 for an historic night against Sweden in the quarter-final… and rewrite Three Lions song forever
You can take the nostalgic punt on Harry Kane to score a hat-trick, Kieran Trippier to score, England to hit the bar and Gareth Southgate to dance all to happen in the last-eight clash
THE entire nation it seems is belting out the Lightning Seeds classic Three Lions... after all, it's coming home, right?
With the in mind, have launched a nostalgic 1966-themed bet for England's quarter-final clash with Sweden.
And you need just four things to come off in Samara to clinch the 1966/1 shout...
To pocket a monster pay-day, you'll need Harry Kane to score a hat-trick, Kieran Trippier to find the net, England to hit the bar and Gareth Southgate to dance.
The idea from Betway is this: Rewrite the lyrics of Three Lions forever.
The proposed lyrics would then become: “But I still see that Kane nets three more, and when Trippier scores, England smashing the bar... and Southgate dancing!”

Betway’s Alan Alger said: “Three Lions is ringing around all corners of the country at the moment and we certainly can’t get it out of our heads!
“As a bit of fun, we’ve priced up a tasty 1966/1 multiple – see what we’ve done there – for a string of events that smoothly fits the tune of the Baddiel and Skinner classic to occur vs Sweden.”
England arrived in Samara just 24 hours ahead of Saturday afternoon's World Cup quarter-final clash.
The Three Lions trained at their Repino base in the morning before embarking on the 1,000-mile flight in the afternoon.
